ABSTRACT supporting Women in Banking and Finance
Nick Goddard
As part of the 40th anniversary celebrations of Women in Banking and Finance last December, ABSTRACT were delighted to be recognised as a ‘Friend of WIBF’ for being a true advocate, supporter and champion of their work to bring a gender lens to UK financial services.
ABSTRACT is proud to be associated with WIBF and to be a part of their journey to become the longest standing network of its kind in the UK. Their aims of helping finance and banking professionals to achieve their full career potential and to boost female contribution to the industry are fully aligned with our own. It is what we have been helping our clients and delegates in banking, finance and other industries to do for many years.
We are looking forward to working with WIBF and their members once again during 2021 and we have three webinar masterclasses planned for delivery in the coming months.
14 July - Creating Your Career Strategy: Career Realisation and Self-Determination that will explore the realisation and fulfilment of participants personal and career potential. In other words, knowing what you want, when you want it, and how to get it! The partner for this virtual event is Tesco Bank.
20 October - How Psychological Safety Creates High Performing Teams: This is about leaders being role models and creating a culture where people can safely and confidently be the best they can be.
24 November - How To Build Modern Day Resilience: This Masterclass will show that it's not what happens to us that truly defines our destiny but how we choose to react to what happens to us. We will show how the business world is positively changing to embrace strong, considerate and inclusive leaders with a 'winning together' mentality.
All three webinars are designed to be interesting and enjoyable AND to have application - with practical tips that delegates can apply personally and in the workplace. This will be important as we emerge from the pandemic and make our choices to go back to the same old ways or back to better.
